Qiu Ze didn't stop any longer, he bowed his hand to Gucci, and turned and walked out of the ruined hall.

It didn't take long for him to walk out of the illusion and come to the originally empty hall.

When Qiu Ze walked out of the main hall, several people had been waiting for a long time, and Zhike hurriedly walked over.

"Did he hurt you?"

Akisawa shook his head.

"From now on, Qiu Ze will be the protector of the eighteenth hall of my Devouring Sect, Xiao Cui, you can take him to his side hall. ”

Gucci's voice came from the hall, and the black bear and the others were stunned, looking at Qiu Ze with some puzzlement in their eyes, and then there was a hint of banter.

Xiao Cui came to Qiu Ze very reluctantly, saluted, and said, "Qiu Protector, please come with me." ”

There are only two positions in the Devouring Sect, the Dharma Protector and the Gate Master, and Xiao Cui is just the leader of the maids, of course, not as high as Qiu Ze's status, even if he is unwilling, he has to bow to Qiu Ze.

Qiu Ze nodded slightly, and was about to leave when Gucci's voice sounded again in the main hall.

"Zhike, since you are here, come in and catch up. ”

Zhike looked at the main hall, and a smile appeared on his face that had not changed for thousands of years, although this smile was still cold.

"I can't ask for it!"

Zhike flew into the main hall, Qiu Ze looked at his departing back, a little worried, Xiao Cui said: "Protector don't worry for the time being, the master of the door never kills people in the main hall." ”

Hearing Xiao Cui's words, Qiu Ze was finally relieved, and followed Xiao Cui down the stone steps.

"The main hall on the top of the mountain is called the Hades Temple, which is where the door master lives, and there are a total of eighteen side halls around the Hades Temple, which protect the Hades Temple in the shape of horns, and your side hall is in the southeast. Xiao Cui said as he walked: "There are a total of eighteen Dharma protectors in the Devouring Sect, these eighteen protectors are equivalent to the mountain gate of Qiyunguan, which can accept disciples, the master of the door does not like to accept disciples, and most of the disciples in the Devouring Sect belong to the eighteen Dharma protectors." ”

After a pause, Xiao Cui said again: "There are two kinds of Dharma protectors, one is the Great Protector, there are three Great Protectors, all of them are the old men of the Devouring Sect, and they have the most disciples, and although you and the black bear are also Dharma protectors, their status is slightly lower than that of the Great Protectors, and when you see the Great Protectors, you have to salute them." ”

Qiu Ze nodded, and followed Xiao Cui through the mountains, Qiu Ze noticed that the location of Zi Yi's Purple Spirit Palace was lower than the side hall of the Dharma Protector, and looking at the appearance of the Purple Spirit Palace, it seemed that it had not been built for a long time.

After walking for half an hour, the two came to a path not far from the Hades Temple, Xiao Cui pointed to the side hall not far below and said, "This is your side hall." ”

Qiu Ze frowned, along the way, the side halls passed by were all imposing and luxurious, but this side hall was very dilapidated, there was a lot of dust on the house, and no one walked in the side hall, and the location was also the worst, and the area was extremely small.

When coming down from the Hades Temple, Qiu Ze saw the mountain of the Wraith Mountain clearly, the Wraith Mountain was divided into eighteen areas, each area was distinguished by a high wall, the highest part of the wall was the side hall where the Dharma Protector lived, and down the side hall was a dense number of houses, and according to the disciples' cultivation to decide where to live in high and low.

But there are not many houses in Qiuze's partial hall down, and most of them are dilapidated, looking at this situation, the status of the previous protector in the Devouring Gate is not high, and it seems that the status of Lingchou Valley in Qiyunguan is the same, not only is the area small, but it has also been suppressed by all parties.

Qiu Ze sighed, no wonder Gucci gave him the position of the protector with a wave of his hand, although they are all protectors, but the circumstances are different, Qiu Ze's status as a protector is just a name, and there is not much substantial benefit, that protector has been dead for several months, presumably no one wants to come here, so Qiu Ze picked up a bargain.

Xiao Cui secretly glanced at Qiu Ze, who was slightly disappointed, a playful smile inadvertently appeared on the corner of his mouth, took out a talisman from the Qiankun bag and handed it to Qiu Ze's hand, and said: "This is the symbol of your Dharma protector status, with it, the ordinary disciples of the Devouring Life Sect see you and want to salute you...... I'll send you here, and later, I'll arrange for a few maids to come and serve you, and you can come to me if you need anything in the future." ”

After speaking, Xiao Cui quickly left the path.

The talisman that Xiao Cui gave to Qiu Ze was a piece of black jade, with the three words of Eighteen Halls written on it.

Akisawa tucked the talisman into his arms, wiped his face, and walked towards the side hall.

When he arrived at the gate, when he saw what was around him, Akisawa smiled bitterly and sighed.

The side hall is extremely dilapidated, even the gate has been demolished, the hollow is extremely ugly, there is messy garbage everywhere, there are even a few pieces of smelly things at the gate, there is a plaque hanging on the lintel, which reads: Eighteen Dharma Protector Palace, five words, these five words are crooked, almost unclear.

Qiu Ze raised his head, looked in the direction of the Hades Temple, and spat fiercely.

It seems like...... Fooled......

Qiu Ze regretted it, regretted being this Dharma protector, looking at the situation here, he was not optimistic......

Just when Qiu Ze was hesitating whether to go in, a few screams suddenly came from inside the door, and after hesitating for a moment, Qiu Ze still strode into the side hall.

After entering the side hall, everything you see is messy, overgrown with weeds, and the corridor is also painted in a mess, where it looks like a palace, more like a ruin!

Following the direction where the screams were emanated, Akisawa passed through several corridors, and suddenly his eyes opened up and he came to a martial arts training ground.

This martial arts training ground can accommodate hundreds of people, but it is also very dilapidated, there is a small platform in the middle, at this time, on the platform, gathered more than twenty disciples in black clothes, their clothes have the words of the eighteenth hall written on them, Qiu Ze nodded slightly, it seems that these twenty or so people are the disciples of the eighteenth hall.

The faces of the more than 20 disciples were extremely embarrassed, their clothes were also very tattered, most of them were injured, and they were surrounded by gray faces, and one of them was crying.

There were about fifty people around the platform, and unlike the disciples of the Eighteen Palaces, they were in good spirits, dressed cleanly, and there were three words written on their backs, and they seemed to be the disciples of the Seventeen Palaces.

"I said, old eight, don't hide it, wouldn't it be over if you hand over the necromantic jade as soon as possible? As long as you hand it over, we won't beat you, why should you suffer from that flesh and skin?"

The person who spoke seemed to be the leader of the disciples of the Seventeenth Hall, and his tone was aggressive, although he was smiling, his words were full of murderous intent.

Qiu Ze looked at the disciples of the eighteen halls on the stage, these twenty people were all very young, the eldest was seventeen or eighteen years old, and the disciples of the seventeen halls were all adults.

"Bai Kun, don't you think about it! The Necromancer Jade was obtained by my junior disciples with all their might, even if you kill me, I won't give it to you!"

The eighteenth hall disciple who spoke was about sixteen years old, and his body was already injured, but his face was full of determination, and he did not give in.

The seventeenth hall disciple known as Bai Kun laughed: "Old eight, for the sake of you and me, I don't want to kill you, but ...... If you don't hand over the Necromantic Jade, don't blame me for being rude!"

"Then you can try it!"

Although the old eight years are young, they are very resolute and do not let go at all.

"Stubborn! Lao Tzu will give you some hard food today, let me get out of the way!"

Bai Kun scolded angrily and waved his hand, and the people around him got out of the way.

"I'll give you a chance to go head-to-head, if you win me, I'll take my juniors and disciples away! If you lose, you have to hand over the Necromantic Jade to me!"

Lao Ba hesitated for a moment, turned around, comforted the junior brother who was crying a few times, and more than 20 people looked at Bai Kun angrily, and finally stepped down.

Bai Kun jumped onto the stage and pulled out a black leather whip from his waist.

Lao Ba wiped the blood from his face and took out his own sword from his waist.

"Look at the move!"

Bai Kun snorted, and the black qi instantly condensed on the leather whip, and as he waved the leather whip, the sound of breaking the air came again and again, and the eighth hurriedly took the sword to resist.

"Bang dang!"

At the moment when the leather whip touched the sword, the sword was beaten by the leather whip and flew far away, falling to the ground, Lao Ba's hand trembled a few times, and the leather whip left a bloody trail of black gas on his hand!

Bai Kun sneered, and waved the leather whip again, looking at the direction he swung out, it was going to hit the eighth child in the face.
